Secret Window with Johnny Depp. I really liked it. Just rented Darkness Falls but haven't watched it yet. I also saw the Nightmare Before Christmas. It was very cute. Also going to watch Phantom of the Opera. I've been wanting to see that for a while.

My husband watched Sin City the other night (I only watched the last 45 minutes, so I didn't really get into it) Anyway, he had a hard time understanding it: he couldn't figure out if it was 3 different stories, or if they characters were suppose to be the same person, and there was one point he wondered what had happened to one of the guys. I told him to rewatch it. He liked it, he just had a hard time figuring it out.

The last two times I've been to Blockbuster, it's all been rented out. It looks like a cool movie, though(Sin City) Sorry to hear that about Phantom of the Opera. I'll have to see if I think the same about it.

3 different stories, they just happen to have links to each other.
For example, 2 stories have scenes in the same bar, and you can see the other story going on in the background and one point. I can see how it can be confusing tho. I had to watch Pulp fiction several times before I could figure out what was going on and when :confused

Thanks, I'll let him know. I've heard that one should watch Pulp Fiction a few times to pick up on all of the things they missed the first time around.

Sin City - Incredible if you ask me. I mean, sure it's gory, but that shouldn't undermine from it's artistry and intriguing storyline.

Guess Who - This is the movie with Ashton Kutcher and Bernie Mac. It was such a slow movie, the storlyline took ages to progress through! Not many funny moments either, but it had it's ups.

Wedding Date - The storyline was so cliched haha but it was cute. This chick flick was enjoyable, but not a memorable one.

This weekend, we rented Bride & Prejudice, and it was the perfect combo of Bollywood flamboyance and good old-fashioned rom-com. Very fun, sweet and feel-good rendition of Jane Austen's classic. Aishwarya Rai is probably one of the most stunningly beautiful women I have ever seen, and I didn't realize how cute Martin Henderson can be when he's not getting attcked by girls that crawl out of televisions. :lol It was also fun to see Naveen Andrews (Said from "Lost") singing and dancing instead of being held captive by crazy French women. I highly recommend if you're looking for a good romantic comedy--and trust me, I'm not actually a fan of rom-coms, and I loved this one.

Last really good movie I rented was The Upside of Anger. Liked it a lot. Kevin Costner was well cast and he had good chemistry with Joan Allen (a surprise). The daughters were all cute. I'd recommend it to all - male and female. Thought it would be a chick flick, but it really wasn't.

Ohh That one was GOOD! and the ending? I am a movie person and saw it coming but I still enjoyed it. (my husband says you always know how all these movies are going to turn out! Write one and make us so money! LMAO)
